Nikko Citigroup is not only an important participant in the local financial markets, but is also a significant member of the international community. Both of these elements are vital to our franchise, as are our shareholders, clients and employees. We believe it is important to contribute as a firm to the community at home and abroad. Organization receiving support should have sound administrative and financial management, and should serve as a model for NPO/NGOs. The focus will be on organizations which provide educational assistance to children who are in need.
